Energy-Saving Window Replacement and Improvement
Even if your current windows look satisfactory, energy‑efficient replacements can decrease heat loss, reduce utility bills, and boost comfort without compromising safety. You'll achieve measurable performance by combining Low‑E upgrades with gas fills and warm‑edge spacers to minimize U‑factor and solar heat gain without sacrificing visible light. We assess orientation, local climate, and code requirements to specify glazing that fulfills ENERGY STAR targets for Burien.
Glass is only part of the equation—window framing enhancements are equally important. We advise insulated vinyl, fiberglass, or thermally broken aluminum frames, sealed with backer rod and low‑expansion foam to eliminate air leakage and condensation. Appropriate anchoring, shims, and flashing integrate units with your weather barrier, protecting structure and occupants. You'll get clear performance data, precise installation timelines, and warranties consistent with manufacturer specifications.
Custom Shower Enclosures and Glass Components
When you're enhancing your home's glass, custom shower enclosures deliver precise fit, clean lines, and safe performance designed for your space. We carefully measure openings, check wall plumb, and specify tempered or laminated safety glass to meet code and reduce flex. You choose frameless enclosures for minimal hardware and effortless maintenance, or semi-frameless systems for distinct edges and budget control.
We plan door swing clearances, hinge loading, and anchor points to suit tile, stone, or acrylic surrounds. Low-iron glass improves clarity; protective finishes prevent spotting. For visual appeal and privacy, we feature patterned interlayers and decorative etching with slip-resistant textures on thresholds. We seal with anti-mold silicone, ensure even reveals, and adjust sweep compression to prevent leaks. Your enclosure performs, fits, and lasts.
Swift Repair Services, Immediate Board‑Ups, and Protection Standards
When glass shatters, you require a rapid, safe response that stabilizes the gap and safeguards occupants and assets. We arrive outfitted with cut‑resistant gloves, eye protection, shatter‑collection tools, and measured panels to secure the premises. After isolating the area, we remove loose shards, assess conditions, and install rigid board‑ups or Temporary glazing to restore weather, security, and energy control.
We provide you with clear timelines: triage within hours, followed by precise measurements for replacement. For storm damage, we assess frame plumb, seal integrity, and hardware alignment, then recommend laminated, tempered, or insulated glass matched to performance specs. We anchor boards to structural members only, maintain drainage paths, and label hazards. Our technicians verify safe egress, child/pet zones, and alarm sensors. You leave with a stabilized opening and a confirmed follow‑up plan.
Handling HOA Requirements, Permits, and Codes
As code compliance ensures safety and resale value, we start your project by mapping the exact approvals your address demands: city permits, energy codes (Washington State Energy Code), safety glazing requirements (tempered/laminated near doors, wet areas, and low sills), egress dimensions, and wind/seismic criteria. We verify scope, assign responsibilities, and provide permit timelines so you know when work begins and inspections happen. We process submittals, drawings, and calculations, then coordinate HOA approval, aligning design details with community standards to prevent delays.
You'll get comprehensive Code updates concerning glass placement and opening measurements. Ahead of installation, we run Inspection checklists: tempered markings, fall‑prevention, safety rails, and emergency egress. During work, we ensure jobsite compliance and schedule inspections. Once we receive approval, we maintain permits for your records and future resale.
Picking the Right Glass, Hardware, and Warranties
Before we order a single pane, we pair glass types and hardware to your residence's exposures, safety zones, and performance goals. We select tempered or laminated safety glazing where code requires, then calibrate U‑factor, SHGC, and visible light. For coastal glare and clear views, Low‑iron glass delivers true color; for privacy, we provide acid‑etched or switchable alternatives. In wet zones, we specify corrosion‑resistant hinges, rollers, and fasteners, then match Hardware finishes with your fixtures for lasting durability and visual cohesion.
We log spacer type, gas fill, and sealant system to maintain warranty integrity. You'll understand website what's covered: glass breakage, seal failure, stress cracks, and finish durability. We register warranties, deliver care protocols, and schedule follow‑ups, preserving your investment and safety long‑term.
